[0027] The improvement of the embodiment is that the engagement process is smoother by setting the clamping block 12 and the tooth groove 26 to be circular arc shapes, which helps to reduce the wear of parts, improve the service life of the clutch, and have a certain elastic deformation capacity during engagement, which can absorb and buffer the impact and vibration during power transmission to a certain extent, which can reduce the damage to the transmission system, protect other parts from overload impact, and also help to improve the overall stability and reliability of the sweeper.

[0028] Specifically, in order to ensure the stable engagement between the clamping block 12 and the tooth groove 26, the clamping block 12 and the tooth groove 26 are engaged, and the gap between the clamping block 12 and the tooth groove 26 can be controlled between 0.05-0.2mm, which can compensate for the manufacturing and installation errors of the gear 25, as well as the deformation caused by heat and stress during work, while ensuring that there will be no impact, vibration and noise due to too large gap during engagement, and also no jamming or burning phenomenon due to too small gap, and the outer surfaces of the driven disc 11 and the clamping block 12 and the inner surfaces of the gear 25 and the tooth groove 26 are provided with wear-resistant coating, reducing the wear between the clamping block 12 and the tooth groove 26.

[0029] Considering the instability of the spring 21 during use and the connection problem between the clutch parts, in order to ensure the stable use of the spring 21 and facilitate the quick installation and disassembly of parts, and facilitate the maintenance of the clutch later, an installation groove 13 is arranged at one end of the connecting shaft 1, and a limiting piece 22 is fixedly connected at one end of the spring 21 and cooperates with the installation groove 13. Among them, the limiting piece 22 can adopt an elastic limiting piece, which has a certain elasticity and can balance the installation and limiting through the elastic allowance.
